We are Ella Farnell and Max Allaham. This year we am proud to be participating in the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Student of the Year Campaign (LLS SoY). Students of the year is a philanthropic leadership development program for high school students where participants fundraise for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society while fostering skills like entrepreneurship, marketing, and project management. This is a 7-week endeavor to raise money and awareness.
The mission of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is simple: make cancer disappear.
This campaign means so much to us, as it allows me the opportunity to not only honor those who are fighting but to keep the memory of those who lost their lives. Most importantly, Ella is doing this for Hunter Wolfe. Although blood does not bind her to Hunter and his family, they are part of my family. At the age of 12 he was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. Unfortunately, he lost his battle and was taken from this world way too soon.
How can you help? Please support my campaign, supporting the LLS mission, there are several ways to do so. To donate you can find my page by clicking the link

If you prefer to write a check, make it payable to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and in the memo of the check write Ella Farnell or Max Allaham. If you prefer to pay in cash, you can either give it to us personally or mail it to Ella’s address at 151 Weiler Road Albrightsville PA, 18210.
